Autozone and others sell brake line stuff, in rolls and straight up to 5'. Lines are 8mm (5/16"), and 10mm (3/8") depending on year. Lowes has a handheld tubing bender. Also need a bubble flare tool.

It's not hard, but there is a bend in the middle of the tunnel that should be there so it doesn't rub. It will take a few installs to get it 'right'.

If you lived in the US I'd say just buy the Tangerine. The only reason I'm doing my own is I also ran a hydraulic clutch line and redoing the rear brake lines to fit chassis mods. I also made a tubing straightener for the roll of tubing. I'm in it for enough hours to make the Tangerine kit a better value.
